Today's reader profile is a total smarty-pants currently enrolled in university seeking a PhD. As intelligent as she is, however, Hila just can't seem to figure out how to stop falling in love with fictional characters... can we help her out? ;)

Hi everyone!
I guess being a Wuthering Heights fan people would expect me to say Heathcliff, but I've always thought he was the kind of guy you'd get a restraining order against. There is of course Darcy and Rochester, however my favourite crush is Mitya from Once Upon the River Love by Andrei Makine. This is an innocent crush though, rather than a lust-based one (he's a bit too young):) - June 20, 2008 at 8:01 PM

I quite fancy Maxim from Rebecca. Just read a synopsis from Penguins site for Hila's favourite by Makine, I'll be getting it for my plane journey - thanks for the tip.

I met Hila for a comment in another another blog, and inmediately I found that she was a very interesting person and very kind too. Being curious is a quality that we need to keep ever, is the thing that keep us alive and makes everything has sense. Thanks for this post!

This little look into her life makes me want to meet her, have coffee and chat about devilishly attractive fictional characters! I'm a Darcy and Rochester fan as well... *sighs*
